课文详注 Further notes on the text

1.          Excuse me 对不起。

这是常用于表示道歉的客套话,相当于汉语中的“劳驾”、“对不起”。当我们要引起别人的注意、要打搅别人或打断别人的话时,通常都可使用这一表达方式。在课文中,男士为了吸引女士的注意而使用了这句客套话。它也可用在下列场合:向陌生人问路,借用他人的电话,从别人身边挤过,在宴席或会议中途要离开一会儿等等。

2.          Yes?什么事?

课文中的 Yes?应用升调朗读,意为:“什么事?”Yes?以升调表示某种不肯定或询问之意,也含有请对方说下去的意思。 3.Pardon?对不起,请再说一遍。

当我们没听清或没理解对方的话并希望对方能重复一遍时,就可以使用这一表达方式。较为正式的说法是:

I beg your pardon. I beg your pardon? Pardon me.

它们在汉语中的意思相当于“对不起,请再说一遍”或者“对不起,请再说一遍好吗?”

4.Thank you very much.非常感谢!

这是一句表示感谢的用语,意为“非常感谢(你)”。请看下列类似的表达式,并注意其语气上的差异:

Thank you.

谢谢(你)

Thanks!

谢谢!

.

这是你的手表。

疑问句:Is this your watch?

这是你的手表吗?

课文详注 Further notes on the text

1.          My coat and my umbrella please. 请把我的大衣和伞拿给我。

这是一个省略形式的祈使句,完整的句子应为:

Give me my coat and my umbrella, please.

口语中,在语境明确的情况下通常可省略动词和间接宾语,如:

(Show me your) Ticket, please

请出示你的票。

(Show me your)Passport, please.

请出示您的护照。

2.          Here's your umbrella and your coat. 这是您的伞和大衣。

Here's Here is 的缩略形式。全句原为:Here is your umbrella and your coat.缩略形式和非缩略形式在英语的书面用语和口语中均有,但非缩略形式常用于比较正式的场合。Here's⋯是一种习惯用法,句中采用了倒装句式,即系动词提到了主语之前。又如 Here is my ticket 这句话用正常的语序时为 My ticket is here

3.Sorry = I'm sorry

这是口语中的缩略形式,通常在社交场合中用于表示对他人的歉意或某种程度的遗憾。

Sorry Excuse me 虽在汉语中都可作“对不起”讲,但 sorry 常用于对自己所犯过失表示道歉,而 Excuse me 则多为表示轻微歉意的客套语。

4.          Sir,先生。

这是英语中对不相识的男子、年长者或上级的尊称。例如:在服务行业中,服务员对男顾客的称呼通常为 sir

What can I do for you, sir?先生,您要买什么? Thank you, sir.

谢谢您,先生。

sir 通常用于正式信函开头的称呼中:

Dear sir 亲爱的先生

Dear sirs 亲爱的先生们/诸位先生们

Sir 可用于有爵士称号者的名字或姓名之前(但不用于姓氏之前):

Sir Winston Churchill 温斯顿·丘吉尔爵士

Sir William Brown 威廉·布朗爵士

语法 Grammar in use

否定句

否定陈述句与肯定陈述句相反,它表示“否定”,并且含有一个如 not 之类的否定词。一个内含 be 的否定形式的陈述句,应在其后加 not以构成否定句:

肯定句:

This is my umbrella.

这是我的伞。否定句:

This is not my umbrella.

这不是我的伞。

请再看课文中的这两句话:

Is this your umbrella?

这是你的伞吗?

No, it isn' t.

不,它不是。

针对一般疑问句的否定的简略答语是 Noit's notit isn't。此处省略和非省略形式的关系为:is not =isn'tit is = it's。全句应为:

No, it is not my umbrella.

不,它不是我的伞。

Lessons 5~6


课文详注 Further notes on the text

1.          Good morning.早上好。

英语中常见的问候用句。对此问候的回应一般也是 Good morning。根据一天中见面时间的不同还可以说 Good afternoon (下午好)和 Good evening(晚上好)。有时英美人见面时只简单地说一声 Hello

2.          This is Miss Sophie Dupont.这位是索菲娅·杜邦小姐。

This is+姓名是将某人介绍给他人时常用的句式。课文中的例子还有: Sophie, this is Hans.

索菲娅,这位是汉斯。

And this is Naoko.

这位是直子。

3.        MrBlake/Miss Sophie Dupont,布莱克先生/索菲娅·杜邦

英语国家中人的姓名通常由 3 部分组成,即:名+中间名+姓。

在一般情况下,不用中间名。在熟悉的人中间,以名相称,而在正式的场合中常用 Mr.(先生),Mrs.(太太),Miss(小姐)Ms.(女士)这些称呼再加上姓。

Mr.用于男士的姓之前,不能单独使用,如课文中的 MrBlake;而 sir 一般单独使用,是对长者、上司或男顾客的尊称,如:

Sorry, sir.

对不起,先生。

Miss 一般用于指未婚女子,不过有时在不知道对方是否已婚时也可使用。

4.          Nice to meet you.很高兴见到你。

用于初次与他人见面等非正式场合。对方的回应一般应为 Nice to meet youtoo(我也很高兴见到你)。

人们在正式的场合初次见面时常用:How do you do?相应的回答也是:How do you do?这是一句问候语,并非问话。

5.          国籍与国家名称有别

请不要将国家名称和与其对应的国籍搞混。课文的 FrenchGermanJapaneseKorean 以及 Chinese 都是表示国籍的词。句中表示中国国籍的词应为 Chinese 而不是 China


语法 Grammar in use 1.特殊疑问句

以疑问词 whowhatwhenwhichwhywherewhosehow 等引导的问句都叫特殊疑问句,也叫疑问词疑问句,有时还被称为 wh-问句

wh-question)。结构一般为:疑问词+助动词+主语+主动词等。作为疑问词的 what 可以用来询问名字、国籍、工作、颜色、型号等。例如以下几个问句:

What make is this car?

这辆小汽车是什么牌子的?

What nationality are you?

你是哪国人?

What is your job?

你的工作是干什么?

What colour is it?

它是什么颜色的?

What size is this skirt?

这条裙子是多大号的?

2.a             an

Sophie is a new student.索菲娅是一名新学生。 This is an umbrella.

这是一把雨伞。

这两个句子中出现的 aan 在英语中被称为不定冠词。a an 在意义上没有区别。用 aan 时,我们必须记住两条基本原则:

(1)     aan 有不确定的意义(即所说的人、动物或东西对听者或读者来说可能是不知道的)。

(2)     aan 只能用于单数可数名词之前。

此外还需注意 a an 的发音:a(在平时讲话中发/+/音)用于辅音(不是辅音字母)之前;an(/+(/)用于元音(不仅仅是以元音字aeiou 开头的词)之前。当我们把 a an 用来说明字母表中的字母时,便会一目了然:

This is a BCDGJKPQRTUVWYZ

这是一个 BCDGJKPQRTUVWY

Z 字母。

This is an AEFHILMNOSX

这是一个 AEFHILMNOSX 字母。

这是自我介绍时通常使用的句型:My name is⋯(后面加上自己的姓名)。有时也可用 I'm⋯这一句型。

在英语中,some any 是两个最常用的数量词。用 some any 时,一般不必精确地说明数量到底有多么大或多么小。它们的作用常常像是 a/an 的复数。

There are some cigarettes in the box.

盒子里有些雪茄。

Have you got some paper-clips in that box?

你那只盒子里有一些回形针吧?(我知道或我认为你有一些,故希望你会说“有”。)

some 加可数名词或不可数名词时,在流畅的话语中一般不重读,而念为/s&m/

(2)    any(表示不确定的数量)通常用在含有 not -n't 的否定句中,也用于表示我们不能确定答案是肯定还是否定,或者用于预料得到的回答是 No 的疑问句中。如:

There are not any spoons in the cupboard.

橱柜中没有任何汤匙。

There aren't any plates on the dressing table.


梳妆台上任何碟子都没有。

Are there any cigarettes on the floor?

地板上有一些烟吗?

短语动词

短语动词通常是指后面常跟一个介词或副词短语的动词,即动词+介词或副词小品词。英语(特别是在非正式的、惯用的英语)中存在着一种用动词短语代替与其同义的单个动词的强烈趋势。如听到敲门声,我们会说 Come in 而不会用 Enter 来表达。最常见的短语动词是由英语中最短小和最简单的动词构成的,这些动词常与表示位置或方向的词组合,along, down, in, off, on, out, over, under 等。例如:

The cats are running along the wall.

猫正沿着墙跑。

The children are jumping off the branch.

孩子们正从树枝上跳下来。

不仅一个单个动词可以同大量的介词或副词小品词一起构成短语动词,而且一个短语动词本身也可能有几种不同的意义。

形容词向副词的转换一般遵循 3 个规则:

(1)     在形容词后面直接加-ly,如:

quick--quickly

hurried--hurriedly

pleasant--pleasantly

warm--warmly

(2)     -y 结尾的形容词,则把-y 改成-i,再加-ly,如:

thirsty--thirstily

happy--happily

(3)     形容词与副词形式相同:

late--late

fast--fast

hard--hard

well--well

2.部分不规则动词的过去式形式

go--went see  saw

understand--understood

take--took

read----read red

drink--drank

run--ran

know--knew

say--said

put--put

cut--cut

直接引语和间接引语

直接引语就是直接引用说话人原来所说的话;间接引语就是原话的转述。直接引语放在引号里,间接引语是把说话人的原话变成宾语从句。

间接引语中,宾语从句中的动词与主句中的主要动词在时态上必须保持一致。一般来说,主要动词用现在时,间接引语中可用现在时(包括一般现在时、现在进行时、现在完成时)和将来时。如:

She says she's got a headache.

她说她头痛。

He says he's staying at a Youth Hostel.你说他正住在一家青年招待所。 He says he has sold his house.

他说他已卖掉了房子。

把直接陈述改为间接引语时,谓语动词形式的变化体现在人称上。如:

He says: I hope you are all well.

他说:我希望你们都身体健康。

He says he hopes we/they are all well.

他说他希望我们/他们都身体健康。

The girl says: I have finished my homework.那个姑娘说:我已完成了家庭作业。 The girl says that she has finished her homework.

1.I can't change a ten-pound note. 我找不开 10 英镑的钞票。

这里 change 是动词,意为“兑换”。change 还可作名词,意为“零钱”,如课文中的 I've got no small change, I'm afraid。此外,no +名词表示所指的东西全然没有。以上这句话比 I haven't got any small change 更强调没有任何一点儿零钱。

2.          I've got none .我没有。

这里指零钱(不可数名词)。none 也可与可数名词连用,如:

None of our passengers can change this note.

我们的乘客中没有一个能破开这张钞票的。

none 在句中通常单独使用,如:

There's no beer in the refrigerator.

冰箱里没有啤酒。

There's none.

没有什么东西。

I bought no magazines.

我没买什么杂志。

I bought none.

我没买什么东西。

3.          Except us .我们俩除外。

意思是:除了我们,他们都是百万富翁。

I shall have to leave London tomorrow.

我明早得离开伦敦。

I had to stop smoking because it was forbidden in my company.

因为我所在的公司内禁止抽烟,所以我不得不停止了吸烟。 如果我们用 must 来提问,则只能用 needn't 来表达否定的回答。

needn't 还可以理解为 have to 的否定回答。needn't (don't need to)don't have to 都表示不必要;而 mustn't 却表示绝对禁止,在说话人看来根本没有选择余地。请看例句:

Must she leave early?

她必须早走吗?

She needn' t leave early.

她不必早走。

Do you have to take a taxi?

你必须乘出租汽车吗?

I don' t have to / need to take a taxi.

我不必乘出租车。

You mustn't turn left.

你不能左转弯。(表示绝对禁止

1.          Where do you think you are?你认为你现在是在哪儿?

do you think 是用在特殊疑问句中的插入语,用来征询见解或表达看法。因为句中插入语已经是疑问式,主谓倒装了,所以 you are 的位置不能再对调了。插入语一般是对句子加一些附加的解释,在句子中作独立成分。常用来作插入语的结构有 I hope, I think, I'm afraid, you know 等。插入语可以位于句尾或句中,有时也可出现在疑问句中。

2.          must have been doing sth.,一定/准是在做某事。

这种结构用来表示对过去正进行的事情的推测。下文中的 can't have been can't have been driving 的省略式,在意思上与 must have been driving正相反。

语法 Grammar in use

需改变时态的间接陈述句

间接引语里常要改变时态,这是因为原来讲的话与转述这些话之间有一段间隔。选择哪种恰当的形式取决于转述者的着眼点。在间接引语里通常并不确切地重复讲话者说过的话。转述通常发生在过去,所以引述动词通常是过去时。因此,转述时从句的时态通常要“往回移” back shift)。一条普遍的规则是:现在时变为过去时,过去时变为过去完成时。为过去时的情态助动词和过去完成时在转述时不变,因为不可能再往回移了。

使用间接引语主要是为了简洁、紧凑地把说话内容转述给第 3 者。请看下面直接引语变成间接引语时在时态等方面必须作出的相应变化:

(1) 一般现在时改为一般过去时: I'm  thirsty,she   said. “我渴了,”她说。

She said (that) she was thirsty.

她说她渴了。

(2) 现在进行时改为过去进行时: I'm having a rest,she told them. “我正在休息,”她告诉他们。

She told them (that) she was having a rest.

她告诉他们说她当时正在休息。

(3)     现在完成时改成过去完成时:

I've just made a new film,she told me. 我刚完成一部新影片,她告诉我。 She told me(that) she had just made a new film.

她告诉我说她刚完成一部新影片。

(4) 一般将来时改成过去将来时(一般用 would +动词原形): I'll   have   to   ask   my   husband,she   said. “我得问问我丈夫,”她说。

She said (that) she would have to ask her husband.

她说她将得去问问她丈夫。

(5) 情态动词由现在时改成过去时或条件时态: I  can  see  you  tomorrow,she  said. “我明天可以见你,”她说。

She said (that) she could see me the next day.

她说她下一天可以见我。 I'll help you,she said.

我将帮助你的,她说。

She said (that) she would help me.

她说她将帮助我。

I may return at six o'clock,she told me. 我可能6点钟回来,她告诉我说。 She told me (that) she might return at six o'clock.


她告诉我说她可能 6 点钟回来。

(6) 为过去时或条件时态的情态助动词不变: I could see you tomorrow,she said. “我明天可能会见你,”她说。

She said (that) she could see me the next day.

她说她第 2 天会见我。

I would complain if I were you,she told me. 如果我是你的话,我就抱怨,她说。 She told me (that) she would complain if she were me.

1 类条件句

如果我们认为将来的事件是可能发生的,就可用第 1 类条件句去描述将会发生什么事或不会发生什么事。其基本结构是:If +一般现在时+将来时(或情态助动词),如:

If it rains tomorrow, we won't go to the seaside.

如果明天下雨,我们就不去海边。

if 从句中的现在时表示需具备的条件,主句中的 shall/will 将来时表示可能的结果。具备的条件是真实的,可能真的下雨。

如果是这样,它就会有真实的结果。这就是为什么这样的陈述句常被称为“开放”条件句或“真实”条件句的原因。事实上,在第 1 类条件句中,一切现在时态都能用在 if 之后,而不仅仅是一般现在时。请看例句:

If he falls ,he'll hurt himself.

如果他摔倒了,他会伤着自己的。

If you don't hurry ,we'll miss the train.

你要是不赶紧点儿,我们就会误了火车。

If you feel better, you can get up.

你要是感觉好些了的话,你就能起床了。

If I am better tomorrow, I will get up.

如果我明天感觉好些了,我就起床下地。

If I have a headache, I will take an aspirin.

我要是头疼的话就会服用一片阿司匹林。

If I can afford it, I will buy it.

要是我买得起的话我就会买它。
